Stat Attack

Barry has just finished updating all of the History of KCC statistics. We're truly lucky that Barry has invested so much time in this project - what other Club could have such an amazing record of its playing history. Read on for Barry's latest press release!

We hope you enjoy keeping up to date by viewing www.keyworthcc.co.uk the Club Website.

I have just completed re-writing and updating the History & Records of the club and the documents can be found in the local reference section at Keyworth Library in Church Drive. The history website www.keyworthcrickethistory.co.uk has also been updated.

In addition to adding all the data from season 2008 there are many other additions/changes from the 1940's through to the present day and a number of extra sections, including trophies, clothing and more extensive records on best batting & bowling performances.

I have embarked on a long term programme (ie. when I can find the time!) of trawling through newspaper records at the City, West Bridgford & Newark Libraries, trying to fill in many of the gaps in our historical records, particularly through the middle of the last century. It is a slow process but very rewarding when you unearth information, which I invariably do. I now have quite detailed data from the Library Service on where to find micro film of particular journals. So it is on-going and ad-hoc changes will appear in the records from time to time.

May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family the compliments of the season and a healthy and happy 2009.

Thank you once again for your past interest. I remain yours sincerely,
Barry Baker
President – Keyworth Cricket Club
